Yup, basically Oliver was in love with the music in Doom Eternal so he wanted to collab with Mick.
make sense for mick to move to producing bands, even if its only a few collabs every so often
Song is pretty great. Love that they keep changing their sound up.
amo is some of their best work so I'm pretty excited for the next album.

Yeah, what was up with that. Is that something from the game or is it straight up flirting with conspiracy nutters.
In their Mick Gordon video diary they said the second verse was "about conspiracy theories and you know all this fucking crazy shit that people make up to try and explain something that's actually really simple", so I don't think we have to worry about BMTH joining the conspiracy nuts. Literally in the next line in the song he says something about the "black hole they call a brain" or something to that effect.
Been listening to BMTH since Count Your Blessings and have enjoyed pretty much everything they put out, even though it took me some time to get used to their new style. Really digging this.
Thing is even pop BMTH has some great actual music it was the vocals and stuff that softened the songs. Like Shikari they just keep changing and doing what they want honestly I have more respect for a band willing to do different shit then just repeat same style
I'm glad this album is going to be more aggressive, I did not like most of their last album even though mantra was a banger. They released a bside album around November that was god awful heres hoping more heavy tunes.
I didn't know they'd released the b-sides stuff... sounds pretty good to me so far. They're one of my faovurite bands because they cover so many styles.
I'm so happy While She Sleeps exists after the pop move from BMTH.
Still sounds better than anything off the last album though.
I laugh at the chorus though.
Its a Parasite EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEve.
Ollie your not chester bennington, you are going to need Jordan to do the pop stuff since I think his voice fits it WAY better.

Continuing their spree of putting out absolute bangers and clearly the addition of Mick Gordon is a good one, hope he produces more for them in future.
The electronic effects remind me of the Apex Legends theme, weirdly
Their remixed album is great, too - A Devestating Liberation is a big, sweeping, moody rework of a track from amo

Bring Me the Horizon have a similar trejectory to Enter Shikari for me where I went from disliking them (though in BMTH's case, more like loathing) to actively being excited for anything they drop, though I skipped over Music to Listen To...
Been listening to them for a while and love most of their output. amo wasn't for me though. But I really like both this and Ludens mixing all the different styles that they've gone through over the years.
shikari went from hatred to top 3 bands and rivalling deftones with quality of albums zero duds .
as for BMTH I feel off after Spirit didn't mind chill out songs but not clicking. I'm digging gamer Oli first ludens due to Death Stranding and now Doom brining in Mick lets get oli playing Metal Gear Rising see what he comes up with next
See this is such a silly way to start a thread.
Because Bring Me the Horizon making "good music" to me is this:
.
And what you posted still sounds to me like it belongs on "the pop music train".
What I'm saying is you don't have to tear something down to boost something up. Different things mean different things to different people. While their music isn't for me anymore, I wouldn't tell anyone it's "bad" just because it's not what I want.
Liking it. And the Slipknot-ified medical masks they're wearing.
Favourite albums of theirs is Sempiternal , however when they get the balance right between their new sound and old on Amo, those tracks are stellar (MANTRA / In the Dark / wonderful life / medicine / mother tongue )

? Amo was a an amazing album and this new stuff could fit in that album without an issue, doesn't sound too different tbh.
Agree with everyone here who said this sounds like their past three albums merging together. In true BMTH style, they absolutely fucking killed it. I stand by the best thing to happen to this band was Jordan Fish.
It's so bad that if you even posted something like that in r/metalcore, you'd get downvoted.
In case you haven't heard them, I recommend checking out Bad Omens if you enjoy Sempiternal and want some more. Their first album, self-titled, was really inspired it.
I believe OP was even sung about on their last album - 'Cause some kid on the 'gram said he used to be a fan, But this shit ain't heavy metal'.
Alright, it was harsh of me to say that in my first post so I'll apologize for the comment I made. Didn't mean to upset anyone over it.
I know a lot of people like the last albums they've released. I just haven't really liked much of their stuff lately. To each their own.

Is it weird to say that modern bands that lean into nu-metal understand the strengths of the subgenre far more than the original bands did?
Still remember them playing at my local(their 2nd ever gig I think) and the singer's hair extension flying off his head.
Well, it does sound incredibly refined and there's a surprising amount of variation in it and I am liking it more and more, but I am not that familiar with other modern bands that take obvious inspiration from nu-metal besides maybe Code Orange, I mostly listen to death metal and black metal.
it's not a huge surprise to find a 'second round' of nu-metal to be inspired and pull from the better stuff
it's likeeeeee, if you were nostalgic for the 80s, or was creating something that was inspired by the 80s, you're going to look and pull from the very best stuff right
Saw them live in Osaka last year with BabyMetal and they absolutely nailed it. Their B side album really wasn't for me but between this and Ludens, Im still on the hype train.
Some background to the song. It's a continuation from their BMTH8 series and shows their adaptation to record this song.
Also the video behind the scenes:
Oli was inspired on Tokyo Ghoul, Henri-George Clouzot's The Inferno, Venom and Hellblade.
